Butterfly - Lloyd Cole

You were an innocent child before I laid my hands on you

And all that pain that you held inside

Was just waiting to bloom in a darkened room

And you just flew right into the light and came alive

My little butterfly

Well, you’d never known love and you’d never known pain

But you found out that they were just like wine and champagne

You could drink a little more, then you hurt a little less

And you’d get that butterfly feeling underneath your dress

And your promises would turn into lies

Then you’d fly

My little butterfly

Now I’m lying here, babe, on your side of the bed

And I’ve got unclean thoughts flying through my head

And I’m thinking about love, yes I’m thinking about pain

And I’m thinking about some way that I might feel good again

Yes, I’m thinking about my little butterfly
